I didn't eat here, but the park served as my halfway point between the Hirschgarten S-bahn train…read morestation and the Nymphenburg palace. The park itself, while not nearly the vastness as the English garden, is a lovely walk and has a rather large beer garden. You'll see a lot of folks sitting on grass and benches, and there are basketball hoops for those that need to work off the beer.
I didn't really stop to watch the deer, but there are a bunch in the park and great for kids.
